We’re through the looking glass here. Labour are opposing tax cuts for working people, in favour of a demographic who have the highest proportion of millionaires.

Great to speak to @TheNationalNews about the surge pricing of private school fees ahead of proposals to impose 20% VAT. Read more below 👇 thenationalnews.com/world/uk-news/…
A very concerning story from @thetimes - building on my previous research for @ASI, we will likely see an increase in migration from private to state becuase of the proposed VAT raise, or greater strain on households young and old. thetimes.co.uk/article/privat…
Research published by the @ASI shows that the state sector is not ready for a potential influx of state school students. VAT on private school fees could be an unmitigated disaster across the nation. Cost benefit analysis must be considered. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…

Interesting that British ownership of Burger King, Brooks Brothers, and Smith & Wesson all ceased in the early 2000s. I wonder what changed 🤔

We have VAT exemptions for all sorts of things. Exemptions should exist for public goods, such as private education, not for mad crap like sweeties.

Over the 2010s, the Govt raised taxes by £6bn a year - but no one noticed, because they did it via regulation. Really, really important new @CPSThinkTank report out today by me and Tom Clougherty, setting out how it happened, and why it matters. (1/?) cps.org.uk/wp-content/upl…

@besttrousers Pretty sure it was all started by the Adam Smith institute, furious that the declaration of independence was stealing attention away from the publication of Wealth of Nations.
The future of right wing politics is a lot more libertarian and laissez fair than most of the current expert pundits proclaim. Appealing to a declining demographic (working class boomers) with talk of reindustrialising can only work short term.
